Rolland Berry Create x Reebok Pump / Maharishi x Adidas Stan Smith

Personally i'm a fan of the "mashups" you get between designers and the big sports brands, especially when it comes to trainers. For example Y-3 (Yohji Yamamoto x Adidas) and Alexander McQueen x Puma.

Here are a couple more of these....

ROLLAND BERRY CREATE x REEBOK PUMP
American artist Rolland Berry puts his stamp on the classics that are Reebok Pumps. I've got to admit at first look i just thought..no thanks. As usual with alot of these designs though, the beauty is in the detail. Close up you see the detail and comic book style design and i've got to say i'm actually quite liking them. I'd probably have to have a matching fitted though! :)


MAHARISHI x ADIDAS STAN SMITH
Always been a fan of Stan Smiths, the classic tennis shoe. Only gripe i had was the fronts come away a bit too easily. Anyway minor gripe aside here is a twist on that old classic with a more than a splash of Maharishi. Again as with the Reeboks it's all in the details. The Maharishi logo is used near the heel and on the inside is a "Mahadidas" lining. I like!
